RISE-ing to the Challenge w/Erin Whalen - Passing Period #9

This Week: We're joined by Erin Whalen, Assistant Principal at DaVinci RISE High School, serving some of the most marginalized youth in Los Angeles, many of whom have experienced homelessness, foster care, the criminal justice system, and interrupted education. Erin, with founder of the school Kari Croft, created RISE with a $10M start up grant from the coveted XQ Super School Project. We talk about what it looks like to truly create a school that meets the needs of all students. Passing Period is an AOTA Podcast Extra that gives us a chance to check-in, reflect, and discuss powerful stories in between our full episodes.
